Roma Hospital
Roma is a town, locality and administrative centre in the Maranoa district of South West Queensland. Located approximately 500km west of Brisbane, Roma characterises itself as the capital of the Western Downs, with a full range of civic facilities. Parts of the existing hospital are over 70 years old.
In 2016 Jacobs Australia were engaged as principal consultants by Queensland Health to undertake the Roma Hospital Redevelopment Project.
A major acute facility with a gross floor area of 12,550 square metres, the new hospital includes an emergency department, allied health, medical imaging, inpatient wards, pathology, medical records, central sterilising, operating theatres and a mortuary. The hospital also features a range of amenities, including reception, administration areas, staff lounge, training rooms, laundry, kitchen, a café and plant rooms.
Appointed by Jacobs, Dotdash’s remit was to deliver full service Wayfinding and Signage Design, from schematics to final defects inspection.
